    Summary

    Jaina watches the dragon for a few seconds, breathing ragged. She’s getting dizzy from the blood loss, and she tightens her hand on her staff to stop herself from toppling over. “Why won’t you just help me kill him and stop more bloodshed from happening?”

    “Would you prefer to stop the bloodshed or to prevent it?”

    Jaina looks at him, then moves her eyes to the valley below. The butcher is somewhere inside, probably boasting about his so-called victory, as if attacking a peaceful city could be considered anything but an atrocity.

    How many lives?

    “Countless, my child. The ones you grieve today, the ones you grieved years ago, the ones you will grieve in years to come if you continue down this path.”

    Or: the time travel fix it no one asked for but the Muse demanded so here we are.

    Summary

    Alastor has always been an opportunist. When a good opportunity falls into his lap like a red apple fell onto Sir Isaac Newton's head, he'll take it and use it to his best benefit. But the thing Alastor finds a little bit pathetic about himself is that, unfortunately, he IS also an Altruist. Besides, sometimes replanting that apple, making it grow and thrive, could bring him more benefits than gorging on it the second he gets it.

    Written after s2e5 and s2s6 aired! So spoilers up to then, but not for future episodes!

    Summary

    Heavily canon-divergent AU.

    Exiled to Drustvar and trained by Thornspeakers, Jaina is flung out of Thros when a final battle goes awry—into a dead city where a relentless spirit offers a pact: rescue her family and avenge her people, and she’ll return the favor. From burned groves to winter crowns to Drustvar’s bramble, they'll learn trust the long way round—hopefully.

    Slow burn; grief, magic, eventual romance, & found family.

    Summary

    The transfer cable snicked into the port, a horribly loud click.
    She had seconds, now, a few hundred heartbeats. Every movement was too loud, every step or breath echoed in his office.

    She undid her hair, mussed the front of her blouse. Creased a pleat into her skirt.
    And then Jaina slid the hard drive and her phone into her briefcase and calmly headed towards the stairs of Menethil Industries like she did every Wednesday.

    Summary

    “You,” the captain said into the intercom. “What did you just do with my ship."

    “Nothing your ship didn’t agree to,” the medic sung, balancing on the balls of her feet like she was preparing to dance.

    The line went quiet for the two heartbeats it took to file the information away under not to be discussed until we are alive enough to argue about ghosts.

    “Jump lane in range,” Crisp said.

    “Calculate,” Gaoshun said, without thinking about the fact that he was not the captain and without caring that the hierarchy mattered less than the rhythm of these particular seconds.

    Summary

    “You can’t run from it now,” he said. “You have a reputation.”

    “I poisoned a creek and set a field on fire. That’s not something to earn ladyship for.” Verily, last she checked, it was not.

    He hummed. “It won us the battle.”

    Maomao clicked her tongue. “That’s just chaotic improvisation.”

    She glanced down at her hands. Still trembling. Still stained with nightshade and the explosive powder from the bombs. The bowstring had left a red, angry welt on her wrist at the final shot. She hadn't even noticed.

    “You’re not the first warlord to start that way,” Gaoshun said. There was something steady in his voice, something oddly kind.

    Summary

    When Luz steps through the portal door, she feels an unbearable weight sit heavily against her chest for no more than a few seconds. Warmth accompanies it soon after and so she brushes it off as some magical side-effect.

    When Luz arrives in the Boiling Isles, everything changes.

    And she does too.

    Summary

    In the heart of the Inner Palace, where every whisper can become poison and alliances are sealed with lies, a young woman named Hua Xuelan appears on the scene, a refined lady, daughter of the noble Lakan, fragile and educated... or at least that’s what the court believes.

    But behind that false name hides Maomao, a former maid with knowledge of medicine and poisons, now turned into the fiancée of the influential Moon Prince. A union arranged by the Council to ensure an heir of imperial blood.

    They share the political game, but not all the truths, and although both try to keep their hearts safe, danger doesn’t always come in the form of knives or poison... sometimes, it dresses as affection and slips between the sheets.

    She doesn’t want to stop being herself.
    He doesn’t know how to love her without breaking her.
    And both are trapped in a lie that, if discovered, could cost them everything..

    Summary

    His fingers smooth the wipe along the wound with brutal care. “If anything, I’m a Court-suspended mutt, if you have to be derogatory at all.”

    “I do.”

    Her voice is dry as gunpowder.

    “Sharp-toothed viper.”

    She shifts, trying to pull back, but he tightens his grip by a fraction—enough to hold her up without caging her.

    “Cat.” She bristles. He feels it roll through her like heat.

    “Nuh-uh.” He tilts his mouth near her ear, where his breath brushes her skin. “Not while I’m a mutt. You’re a viper as long as you can’t find your manners.”

    “Fuck you,” she snarls—but her voice frays at the edge, cracked and hoarse and trembling with heat.

    He laughs again. Quiet. Almost fond. “You haven’t earned that right yet.”

    Summary

    Jinshi banished Maomao from court, due to a misunderstanding (well, its not JinMao without misunderstandings, right?) but, unbeknownst to him, she was actually pregnant and was about to tell him. Feeling betrayed, she sought the help of Lakan for protection, who made plans to look like she went abroad to study but in fact, she was only sent and kept away in the La Clan estate……

    Summary

    What could possibly drive Maomao to immerse herself in the ruthless world of politics and court games—the very things she despises most? What would make her embrace her noble lineage, accept the eccentric man she now calls father, and willingly entangle herself in such a deadly web of power and intrigue?

    The title was inspired of Maomao's color of clothing; sorry for the grammar; English was not my first language!

    Summary

    “WE’RE NOT LAST PLACE! WE’RE NOT LAST PLACE! WE’RE NOT LAST PLACE!”

    To that ebullient tune, the team marched into the dressing room, only for the voices to cut off as one upon catching sight of the figure that stood in the middle of it.

    Sylvanas opened her eyes briefly, then decided the better option was to shut them again.

    “Hello,” said Jaina Proudmoore, the soon-to-be-new coach of the Undercity Rangers. “Catchy slogan. I can see that we’ve got a lot of work ahead of us.”

    (AU where Sylvanas captains a hockey team, and Jaina is drafted to coach it.)
